BBQ at STL : Nope! Head into the city for BBQ
riteshraja STL is an airport underserved with amenities, but that will hopefully change with their new airport director. Unfortunately, there are no great restaurants (aside from a few chains and bars) in the terminal. If you ever make it to St. Louis for more than a layover, the city has some amazing food options!
gj83 St. Louis is known for a few items including Toasted Ravioli. It's also home to Gooey-Butter Cake and a type of pizza with wafer thin crust. It has a great type of BBQ that is much less vinegar tasting than that of Kansas City and has more variety than the pulled-pork-only I've sampled in North Carolina.
